A spokesman for anti-racism campaign Hope not Hate told The Independent: "What Katie Hopkins did, posing next to Italian fascist graffiti, having pictures taken with Holocaust deniers and right-wing extremists, and openly sharing content from Defend Europe, was move from being a journalist or even a commentator, into a full-on propaganda/PR machine for an extremist operation."

Marie Van der Zyl, Vice President of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, told The Independent: "It was distressing to see Katie Hopkins posing for a photo with a Holocaust denier, as part of her trip."

The Independent approached a representative for Ms Hopkins for comment.
